Lately, Wizards fans have been depressed.

The team was controlled by a bullshit Chinese who didn't know anything, and instead of sending away the team's star Arenas, he also selected a group of inexplicable guys.

was looking forward to waiting for Arenas to return from injury to lead the Wizards back to the playoffs, but now it's okay, Arenas's injury is healed, but people have run to the Timberwolves!

Now that the regular season is about to start, and the Wizards don't have any news of a trade, is that madman going to play with the current team's roster?

Although the vast majority of fans are not professional basketball commentators or anything, they can also realize that the current Wizards team does not even have a superstar.

Although Jamison and Butler are both All-Star selected players, and they are also known as the Wizards' Big Three with Arenas, these two are obviously not stars, just looking at the team record without Arenas last season can explain everything!

Which strong team in the NBA doesn't have a star to back it up?

Even the Pistons, known as the Civilian team, have Billups and Ben. Wallace's existence!

"Hey, tomorrow preseason, are you going to see it?"

"If you don't go, what are you going to see? What can we expect from the current Wizards? Do you want to see the team lose miserably? ”

"Then I'm not going either, shit wizard, go die!"

……

On October 6, the preseason officially began, and the Wizards hosted the Cleveland Cavaliers.

In this game, the attendance of the MCI Center Arena, the home of the Wizards, was low, and there were a lot of vacancies.

Obviously, a series of actions by the Wizards this summer have made many Wizards fans angry, and they do not hesitate to use such methods to protest retaliation.

But in this game, the Wizards won.

The reason why the Wizards were able to win had nothing to do with themselves, mainly because of the Cavaliers' star LeBron. James played just 19 minutes, and for most of the rest of the time, the Cavaliers were heavily rotating the roster.

In fact, the Wizards are the same, Jamison and Butler only play a little more than 20 minutes, and rookies such as Beverley, Green and Joe Dankey Jr. have played a lot of minutes and played well.

The game was tepid and there was no particularly fierce confrontation between the two teams, so it didn't attract people's attention.

The big news of the day came from the Los Angeles Clippers.

The day before the start of the preseason, Lang Griffin, the champion in training, suddenly felt discomfort in his left leg, and after being examined, it was found that it was a stress fracture of the kneecap in his left knee, and the Clippers officially announced that Griffin would postpone the date of the NBA premiere, and there was a high probability that he would not be able to play for the entire season.

As soon as this news came out, everyone's hearts suddenly "popped", and a person's name involuntarily appeared in their minds.

Oden!

The season is reimbursed before he makes his NBA debut, which is almost exactly the same as the original Oden!

Could it be that Griffin will become the second Oden?

At the same time, some people remembered Wang Xiao's name.

During the trial before the draft, Wang Xiao praised Griffin, as if he liked it very much.

But at the draft meeting, Wang Xiao directly exchanged the top pick for the Clippers and gave Griffin to the Clippers.

There were quite a few people who were very strange at the time, didn't you think Griffin was amazing? How can I give it to someone else?

Combined with the current Griffin season reimbursement, someone finally has some reaction.

"Holy! That guy didn't know about it a long time ago, did he? This is also an exaggeration! Could he have predicted the prophet? ”

"Not necessarily, if he really has the vision to replace Arenas?"

Someone said the same thing.

On the day of the preseason, Arenas also made his debut with the Timberwolves.

In the first 25 minutes of play, Arenas scored 31 points and 5 assists, and the efficiency was terrifying.

After the game, Arenas said that he felt quite good after returning from injury, and he believed that he would still be able to maintain such an efficient competitive state in the next games.

Many Timberwolves fans shouted that they had found a treasure, and Garnett was robbed by the Celtics back then, and Timberwolves fans have always been haunted, but they didn't expect that one day their own team would be able to rob other stars.

Wang Xiao did not make any comments on this.

Arenas won't necessarily have another gungate incident after being traded to the Timberwolves, but that doesn't mean he's going to be productive all the time.

In another time and space, Arenas' gun-toting incident resulted in a 50-game suspension, which was not as many as he missed due to injury in the '09 season.

However, when he returned, his performance dropped significantly, and he was only 29 years old at the time, still in the prime of a player's condition.

Wang Xiao doesn't know how long Arenas would have been in peak form without the gungate suspension, but in any case, he can't compare to Curry, and his personality dictates that he certainly can't tolerate a situation where he is not the core of the team.

Therefore, it is an inevitable decision to trade him, and there is no need to hesitate or regret it afterwards.

……

The Wizards' debut was very good, and Curry and Harden made good debuts as rookies.

But immediately after the second preseason game, the Wizards' starting lineup was very different from the first.

Starting point guard Beverley, scoring guard Miller, small forward Danny Green, power forward Blatch, center Jordan Jr.

Many people were baffled by this pure substitute lineup, and they didn't know what the wizards were doing.

But this lineup played a very good effect at the beginning, the five players on the field were quite physical, the defense was active and hard, and the non-stop pressing and even messing up the opponent was scrambling.

However, this squad has clearly signed up in attack, and the five men on the pitch have few points to take the initiative to attack.

Therefore, although it effectively limits the opponent's scoring, the scoring efficiency of one's own side is not high.

A few minutes later, Wang Xiao took Mike. Miller came off the court and put Harden on the court.

Something changed at once.

Harden is a typical guard who needs to attack with the ball and can do a lot when the ball is in his hands.

Led by Harden, the scoring efficiency of this lineup has obviously improved.

But at this time, Wang Xiao changed formations again.

This time it's a massive rotation.

Except for Danny. Except for Green, the rest of the players were replaced.

Curry, Nick. Young, Jamison plus McGee play.

The ball-handling offense changed from Harden to Curry.

At the same time, McGee, who was on the inside, began to frequently pull to the outside to block and dismantle Curry, which caused a lot of headaches for the opposing center, and he didn't know if he should go out to make up for the defense.

At this time, he was the only one left on the inside line, because the other four players were all pulled to the outside by the shooters of the Wizards, and if he followed out, the inside line would be completely empty!

In the gap of his hesitation, McGee blocked the guard who was marking Curry, and Curry, who pulled out a little gap, did not hesitate to shoot a three-point shot on the spot, and the basketball went into the net.

"I'll go! What the hell is this? ”

At this point, the opposing player's psyche may be broken.

There's nothing wrong with pre-season being a run-in game, but what the hell is it that there are three different lineups in less than 10 minutes?
